Paranoia to the extreem, only came about because of fears of the dam being "blowd up" by terrorists,

Now that said it is a good example of construction in difficult situations.

Just because it's built in America doesn't mean it's designed in America or by American designers. That is just the old keystone method of arch building technology which has been around for many many centuries, long before America was 'discovered' by a malcontent who wanted to prove the world was not flat.

Great photos! I'd hate to be the guy that has to service those porta potties in the middle of that bridge!
